Well, in the style of apologies of Bavarian Politicians, where, afterall, you stated before to have ...

Except you are leaving out some facts. You only represent a one-sided history.
This idea that the whites brought civilization to the ignorant, huinter-gatherer heathen natives is pretty insulting. Especially when you consider the impact of the native americans in our history and what they brought and gave to the white settlers.

Our government is based upon the Iroquois style of governance.

We learned guerilla warfare from the indians.

Tobacco, corn, potatoes, squash....all the staples we couldn't go without these days came from the indians.

Lacrosse was a sport we adopted from the natives.

There are many contributions that just get ignored by labeling them as ignorant hunter-gatherers.

Behold the turtle. He makes progress only when he sticks his neck out.

Except that you leave out the part to mention where I was including the Native Americans of the USA.
Seriously, did I do that anywhere? If so, where?
Quote me.

I know that you know, and know that you know that the native american peoples in the US had very well advanced much further than those that I did mention,
afterall the Inca atztecs etc., for all that indeed was wrong with those, DID have evolved to high Civilisations of contemponary stage of their time when the Spaniards arrived, although already well above their zenit, rotten, and only waiting for the spark of their collapse that came in the form of some Spics. And for those parts of those more southern civilsisations that the native americans in the US had not gotten to, well, there's nothing to miss about.

Only, sorry about that, but not all those natives peoples are as yours are,
And I didn't even give you any reason to consider yours as addressed before accidently ambiguasly allowing that understanding by mentioning your spouse, which I didn't mean that way.
And I'm not only talking about the likes of gipsys or pikeys, who don't even have any such reason to consider themselves as any kind of natives to anywhere,
just think about it, Australia is a renowned regional destination for higher education,
and yet a bunch of abbos, most likely, bring down the average IQ level below Africa.
